Lake Anne land Swap Approved

Fairfax County
“A land swap that some view as critical to the revitalization of Reston’s Lake Anne community is moving ahead. The Reston Association Board of Directors gave initial approval to an agreement with developer Republic Family of Companies, operating as Lake Anne Development Partners, to trade two 1-acre pieces of land.

Many Reston residents said they object to the RA giving up a heavily treed piece of land and allowing a parking garage to be built there. Fairfax County has entered into a public-private partnership with Republic to redevelop the Crescent apartments, which the county currently owns, and to complete some other improvements to the Lake Anne Plaza area.”
